Former 1UP employees form new website.

Eat. Sleep. Game:"Read about our departed 1UP Show friends at Matt Chandronait's personal site, TalkingOrange.com. They, like us writers and podcasters (though they're damn good at that too, mind you), will not be stopping what they love doing; not by any stretch. All things considered, these are really exciting times for us all, I think far more than we could have imagined. We're also talking to those guys about how we can work together in whatever we both end up doing, so don't think you've seen the last of us together."

Please show your support for these guys. What happened to the crew at 1UP last week is just awful and these guys could really use the help to keep doing what they love. Their a talented group of people and really know their stuff when it comes to gaming. If you enjoy games then you owe it to yourself to check these guys out if you haven't already. Just try to spread the word so they can keep things moving!

man I hope they continue with something along the lines of 1up Show. It was to me the most trustworthy source for opinions on a game. They talked about both the good and the bad and very often showed it too with a clip from the game. Wish them the best of luck and I'll be keeping an eye on them for sure. I just hope the publishers will provide them with games to preview.

Yeah, so I can read reviews from a guy that gives 8.8 to Zelda TP which is about 50 hours long (and that's being conservative) but 9.4 to Gears 1 which is about 10 hours long (and that's being generous); when Zelda TP has complex gameplay, puzzles, storyline, adventure and action all gears has is action and graphics.

Just because Gerstmann got fired for being "honest" it doesn't mean he's good at his job. Giant Bomb is utter bull. I trust nobody, but if I had to trust someone I would start with IGN, and then it's a tie between game informer and gamepro.

1up went downhill after Dan Hsu became the main editor. Before that I used to love EGM, but they became trash.

1. eat-sleep-game, was a site a few of the 1up staff created AGES ago. 2. Talking Orange is where the staffers that were just let go will be working. 3. eat-sleep-game has not been used for some time (hence why it's out of date looking) 4. eat-sleep-game is being a temporary home for these guys.

For those of you that don't know Ryan O'Donell is PS3 guy, listen to RebelFM. Nice that he needed to loose job to admit that he loves his PS3. Rest of them are pro 360 users, with usual excuse "I am axhivment whore", or "I prefer 360 controller" or "all my friends are on xbox live".

I have to say after reading that comic about PS3 and them having those 360 gamer tags, Halo background, as a PS3 owner do i want to be there? Can i trust them when they say something about PS3, even if it is positive? Problem is once you know someone is biased you have these two problems. 1.He/She/they are biased so when they bash your product, you just think they are biased and not objective. 2.He/She/they are biased but give positive comment on your product, now you will think most of the time that they are sucking up to that part of audience so can you trust them?

It doesn't matter which way they go or say, when you see someone as biased it is hard to trust them. Impossible.

I am most likely 99% not going back there. Also i don't agree with way how they exploit their fans and get money from them. Do something like Epileptic Gaming guys and try to earn you own money and then do something. This way they ask from ppl money while everyone is still emotinal and "weak", so it is easy to use them. Strange that bunch of guys that worked for YEARS were not able to save some money for times like this one, no one know what is going to happen in future, so if every single one of them, saved at LEAST 2000USD and put them all together you get a lot of money, enough to buy equipment. But no this is easier

I am 110% not going back there. They are carrying on the 1up tradition in an even more blatant format. All one has to do is see that comic rucky pointed me to and you understand where they are headed. The other stuff is just icing on the cake. Good luck getting MS to pitch in money for them in the this time where MS is whacking studios and preparing to drop sales like a rock.

"Believe it. I am thrilled 1up is in the toilet they created for themselves. I only wish I could have pulled the chain myself.

You consider it evil? That is a laugh. We are discussing people that have continued to proliferate lies, inaccuracies, and propaganda, freely and blatantly attacking a hardware/software manufacturer in an unjustifiable manner. They got what was coming to them. What do you think they deserved? A raise? A bonus? No they got their just desserts and I am going to throw a party tonight celebrating their demise."

I was never really a fan of 1up. Their excuse for their blatant favoritism for the 360 has always been "I prefer the controller" or "That's where all my friends play". I expect to hear that from a gamer, sure, and I have no problem with it, but for a so-called 'journalist' to use that as their excuse....pathetic.

Prediction: the most hits this new site gets for the entire year is when they score Killzone 2 less than 8/10.

You're kidding me right? You 360 fanboys are really retarded and blind. Are you gonna tell me that 1Up wasnt blantly biased? But i bet you think N4G is biased. See cuz the way it works with 360 fanboys is that whenever a site is pro-360, its ok, its alright, that's not biased, they are not being fanboys, but when it has a pro-PS3 slant (which isnt many). Then its biased, its fvcked up, they are fanboys. See cuz to the 360 fanboys, you are only a "fanboy" or "biased" if you're a PS3 fanboy. It's fanboyism at its best.

They didn't lose their jobs because they're "fanboys." They lost their jobs because Gamevideos.com was a horrible site. The 1up show was horrible because it was self-indulgent. They focused more on themselves then the actual games they were "suppose" to be covering. It was like TMZ for games. Who gives a sh!t about half-ass skits with [email protected] being every other word. It was horrible

Lol'd in a bad way.It was entertaining,but theres times when they go on and on and u just say 'wtf? ' .i also wasnt a fan of their rating system,but at the end of the day,we need more shows/media in general on the web.to get a better view of whats going on

More Bias crap from bias people. There's a reason why they had to start their own new website, who the f$ck would give these people jobs?

They do a great disservices to the industry, all 1up was (and the trend seems to be continuing on their new site) is an extended high-school caliber blog, which is/was less informative then FOX NEWS, at least with FOX NEWS, you know they're not suppose to know anything about videogames.

Wow, talk about a sad xbot site, I wont visit it just like I never visited 1up. When the first thing you put on your site is a Halo 3 advertisement (a game that came out 2 years ago) you are only proving your sh!tbot loyalty.
